All That Chazz: Your Brain Tickle Destination
Apocalyptic Epics and Killer Crime Thrillers by Robert Chazz Chute
Today I published another ebook: a short story called Vengeance is #1.
In this story, we meet Georgie, an angry girl with a funny, mean streak. This seventeen-year-old wants to be normal, if only she could figure out what Normal is and how to get there. After enduring a string of therapists, she encounters Dr. Circe Papua. Things are looking up for Georgie until Dr. Papua fires her as a patient. Now Georgie is looking for redemption and an apology. Failing that, she’ll settle for vengeance.

At the risk of sounding like an infomercial, but wait there’s more! The new short story, Parting Shots is what happens the morning after the events that occurred in Asia Unbound. The stories are complete and can stand alone, or read both to discover the weave. Parting Shots is available at my Smashwords page.
In Parting Shots, Marcus in the Morning gets into an argument about God and the nature of the universe, proving that sometimes when you win, you lose.
Poeticule Bay, Maine is a mix of towns I grew up in on the east coast. Think Stephen King minus the fun clown in It and you have the flavor of my childhood. The small-town claustrophobia and dark family dynamics showed up in my fiction so much, I had to succumb to the call and admit escape, redemption, sacrifice and the twisted and twisty were recurring themes. There’s no sense fighting the muse. I look forward to writing many books that will take place in my favorite foggy inlet tucked away from the world. Check out the books now and you’ll see the evolution behind the suspense series.
The Poeticule Bay stories evolved organically, so some characters recur across the Fictionscape. The novelette, The Dangerous Kind, takes place in Poeticule Bay. Asia in Asia Unbound was born years ago in my imagination. However, an incarnation of that character, Legs Gabrielle, returns to Poeticule Bay to confront her past in Self-help for Stoners.
Meanwhile, I’m working on a Poeticule Bay novel that brings back characters from these stories: Sheriff Rose, Joey and Jason (from The Dangerous Kind). Legs Gabrielle from Self-help for Stoners is the main character in the novel. (More on that later.)
Please check out all the books through the Smashwords link above.
But wait, Chazz! I prefer to read a book made of paper!
Sure! Click here for Self-help for Stoners in paperback.
I hope you enjoy them all. Happy Boxing Week!
Finally, you get a fun, erotic romp…and the apology you deserve for the previous episode. I think I’m getting better, and by that I mean I’m almost over that terrible cold and slightly better on the mic. I promise to get more microphone practice over the holidays by singing in front of the mirror with a hairbrush.

This is the podcast I should not have published. I was so sick this week, my ill body impaired my sick mind.
Listen for the cough and the stomach growl I had not the strength to edit out!
I croak about pet peeves, on being a beautiful loser frog I read a story from my book Self-help for Stoners, Stuff to Read When You’re High.
It’s called Penny for Your Thoughts. It’s about a man enduring nicotine dreams and chewing his metaphorical leg off to get out of a real life trap.

Ratings really do help, folks, so please do leave a review. Thanks!
And yes, I’m starting to feel better now, thank you.
The new episode of the Self-help for Stoners podcast is up!
In this foray into the dark, buckle up for new revelations. This time, it’s personal:
Skinny Pigs and Serial Killer Mom
Burnt Toast and Terrorist Bed Bugs
and The Fortune Teller, an excerpt from my book, Sex, Death and Mind Control (for fun and profit.)
In this episode you hear Colonoscopy Confessions, Tweet of the Week and two excerpts from the book Self-help for Stoners (available on Amazon.com and more)!
I break down why time machines won’t save you and how to beat a weed and murder charge in Texas with a skunk and a smile.
I also call for the guys from Fatinee to come back to the mic but they beat me to it. (They had a new pod up reviewing Jack and Jill right after this was recorded.)
Please subscribe and leave a review on iTunes!
Thanks for listening!
The second episode of the podcast features:
Shiny Shoes II, an excerpt from the ebook Self-help for Stoners; a story about a night at the theatre that goes horribly awry; Tweets of the Week; miscasting Jerry McGuire on purpose; and the DJ who, predictably, goes ballistic. Enjoy the air travel tips, too, but maybe you shouldn’t follow the advice about slapping a child. It’s not safe for work, unless you work with headphones. Or the hearing-impaired.
